10-Feet Sea God And His 5-Feet Human Bride
For over a thousand years, the Sea God has ruled the endless oceans, his power feared by mortals and worshipped by kings. His storms shape empires, his tides decide the fate of nations. Yet beneath his immortal strength lies a single, unfulfilled desire-an heir. He has crowned countless Sea Queens, each one chosen for her beauty, her magic, her divine blood. And each one has failed him. The sea remains silent, barren, and his throne grows colder with every passing century. Until one night, against every law of nature and every curse of the gods, a fragile human girl carries his child. She is everything he despises-mortal, weak, fleeting. He has drowned cities for less than a whisper of human defiance. And yet, inside her grows the one thing he has longed for more than power, more than eternity itself. Now, torn between hatred and desire, vengeance and hope, the Sea God must choose: Will he destroy the girl who embodies everything he loathes... Or protect the fragile spark of life that could finally break his eternal loneliness? A tale of forbidden love, divine wrath, and the one bond strong enough to shake the heavens-the bond between father and child.Completa

MYTHIC LEGENDS: FLAME AND EMPIRE
The war storms at the Frontier... The gods are broken. The empire is burning. And the end has already begun. A warrior with no past unleashes power no mortal should wield. A young ruler clings to a dying crown as his people lose faith. A chaos mage, feared and revered, walks with death in her shadow. Amongst their ranks-two Rifter siblings, wilders of ruin, benders of space and time. Feared. Watched. Leashed by the most powerful. But even under chains, love blooms... and loyalty begins to shift. When the empress falls into a cursed slumber-her unborn child the last ember of prophecy- the empire sends its strongest into the Abyss of Lost Quintessence: A place where even time forgets itself, where silence hungers, and where One of the Roots of the Umbrovyn Tree stands-ancient, cracked, and bleeding memory. Monstrosities roam, daring to strike in daylight. The veils whisper betrayal. Alliances splinter. Some stand frozen, unsure of their next move- fearing one wrong step may provoke the wrath of a dominion vast as a world and cruel as the gods who forged it. Old gods stir, craving redemption through ruin. The Royal House fractures beneath betrayal. A founding father, long patient, now bares their intent- to seize the throne by force, by cunning, by wagering all that is. Their House's malice toward the flawed Royal line can no longer be cloaked. Love will test loyalty. Legends will bleed. And in the dying light of Ether-Space- The Aurora must not fall... Or all realities will burn. 🔥
